Is Classical Music my last resort to relieve my stress from work? I came across some violin bows online because I am considering learning how to play the violin. Its been my lifelong dream to learn and play any stringed instrument but failed miserably, like when I attempted to learn the guitar, even though I have short fingers to actually learn to play in advanced. I believe this time, that violin is my next new musical hobby, as it is relaxing listening to the music it makes, I bet it is also as relaxing to play this instrument.
